River Mountain Retreat
Everett, PA

Retreat with Susan Mondi Bowen & the Thrive Community at River Mountain Retreat Center. River Mountain’s 150 acre campus is located in the heart of the Allegheny Mountains of southern Pennsylvania along the banks of Sweet Root Creek. Nestled in a deep valley adjacent to Buchanan State Forest, our secluded sanctuary provides unparalleled access to the outdoors and back- to-nature experiences, aiming to provide accessibility and inclusivity for all.

River Mountain is more than a place – it is a transformational, human-centered experience. River Mountain offers open space and fresh mountain air to getaway and be well. It is a place to realign, reconnect, and recharge with one another and the natural world. A place to unwind and enjoy your journey.

Testimonials from Past Retreaters

"I recently attended one of the local retreats, and it was extremely enriching and it helped me work through a lot of stuck energy in my system. I met a friendly group of like minded souls, and we experienced good vibrations all weekend long. The 4 day retreat was filled with meditation, breath work, sound bath, ice bath and of course, lots of yoga! I highly recommend going to one of the retreats or at least a class! Susan is extremely knowledgeable, and she fills the room with so much positive energy.

"I joined Thrive Yoga on a retreat this past weekend never having been to the studio before. It was an admitted risk, but one I will never regret. Susan is an amazing person and teacher. I enjoyed all of her yoga classes and the sound bath. Most importantly was the welcoming attitude of all her students. It is clear that she has developed a strong and loving community at her studio. I wish I lived closer so that I could be a part of this Thrive Family.

"This retreat was the best ever! Lots of laughter, sound bath, meditation, yoga, breathing exercises, relaxation, hiking, amazing food, making new friends. What more could you want? I’ll be there again next time

"Recently I had the pleasure of doing a yoga retreat with Thrive and I couldn’t say enough great things about this wonderful studio and their amazing community. Yoga, pranayama, sound baths, and more all delivered in an accessible yet challenging way that leaves you feeling physically energized and spiritually lifted. Their community was clearly tight knit but welcomed my friend and I immediately making us feel like we had known them forever. Although I don’t live in the area I will be watching out for workshops and making special trips just to reconnect with them and myself. I highly recommend this studio. Thank you Thrive family.
